  • Multi-Touch Interaction Research Interesting looking touch-based interface that reminds me a lot of the map display that people were showing off at last year's ETech...
  • It's official! Google buys Measuremap! I've chatted to Veen a few times over the last few months but still this is a surprise. It's a lovely piece of work, which I imagine will fit Blogger very well. And I'm looking forward to hearing about Google's culture and swapping notes...
  • LED Throwies! A fun way of playing with LED lights, magnets and batteries! With only a 75% chance of being making something that's bound to poison small animals and children!

Comments

Please stay on-topic, informative and polite. I reserve the right to remove comments for whatever vague capricious reasons seem reasonable at the time.

  1. Don't think I've seen Measure Map before (though a vague déjà vu). Only about 500 Google links and a 10k Alexa Traffic Rank peak's probably why.
  2. I'm skeptic of this web loom oligopoly Google, Yahoo, and Microsoft are buying. Still - it's got a nice, simple, and interesting front - so.. thanks?
